2 INFORMATION REGARDING NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES This presentation includes certain financial measures not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP ("non-GAAP financial measures"). Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide both management and users of the Group's consolidated financial statements with useful additional information when evaluating the Group's operating and financial performance. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for or superior to financial information prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures are included in the Appendix of this presentation and should be reviewed carefully. The presentation of non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, the financial information prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, in accordance with which the Group’s primary financial statements are prepared and presented. Where IFRS measures are presented for comparison, they should be read together with, and are not a substitute for, the Group’s financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
